I do believe it will be getting a simultaneous release in a few countries come the premiere.

That is all anyone wonders. Though at this point, I think most of the fandom is starting to go stir-crazy from waiting.

Like I said though, I would really hate if madoka fans came out of the woodwork screaming "copycat" if the new show is depressing

There's so much speculation going on in between the bitchfests of "WHERE'S THE NEWS GOD WHY HAVEN'T WE GOTTEN ANY NEWS OSABU I SWEAR TO GOD YOU BETTER GIVE US SOME FUCKIN NEWS MAN"
A lot of people think it will end up emulating more recent magical girl series as far as style and several plot points go - PMMM, Pretty Coore Cure, etc. etc., just because the style has been based so much on emulating and working on formats developed by previous series, but then a lot of those people seem to have forgotten that SM set a lot of the trends for the sentai-styled team of magical girls. Even more so, the manga, as I've said before, had plenty of dark and edgy shit (hi there nice to mention you again face melting and the vaporizing of people and other shit).
You've got fans who want it to be an exact recreation of the original run. You've got the ones who want the style to emulate Takeuchi's art style from when she was making the series, ones who want the manga plots with the old anime art style, etc. etc. Then there's the few voices in the masses that are quietly trying to say that the revival will fail, because it won't bring anything new to the table and, with the series being so old, it doesn't have the same ability to drive itself forward and market well.
In the end, the most important thing to realize is that the new anime will probably cause another great rift in the fanbase like PGSM managed to do. Can't please everyone out there.

Funny thing about "old" series... it's hilarious to think that Dragon Ball is one of those ancient titles that still sells really well, people can argue all they want about how this is not the case but DB and SM have always been in the same school if not generation of anime fans. While it is true that PGSM has driven a rift, it's not so cataclysmic in my opinion that the new series would fail... In the end Moonies are still Moonies. I have no doubt in my mind that if Dragon Ball Kai (DBZ Kai in the states) can tell the same story that we all know at a faster rate, then the new Sailor Moon will be just as successful...
Seriously, how the hell did DB Kai manage to bleed more money out of people? (Not complaining, I actually love Dragon Ball as well... but it baffles me how people didn't complain when Dragon Ball didn't offer anything new and it still runs strong)

Oh, I doubt the series will fail. It's Sailor Moon - people around the world are jumping out of their skin waiting for it. (please release some fabulous merch like wands and shit I want to collect that stuff okay)
Considering past trends the series might try to go in yet another different direction with the plot, but then again it might not, and that's perfectly fine, too. Although, I've got to admit ... I'm just a little tired of the Dark Kingdom arc after all these years of having it drilled into my head ... please don't pull the overfocus on the Shittenou like PGSM did that would sadden me a little.

Wasn't it confirmed via twitter that the new anime's release is gonna be delayed? It won't be releasing this summer. I was crushed.

Mm, Osabu confirmed it himself (they are apparently still hoping for a 2013 release but it's looking rather bleak to be honest).
Well, we've been waiting this long anyway, what's another several months?
